A series of Tumblr posts. The first on is by avagarde and it reads “It’s so unfair i don’t get to see where evolution will go in 50 million years.” geekysteven responds with “crab.” The last post is by Existentialmemes and it reads Crustaceans: Crab, Mammals: Weasel, Plants: Tree, Amphibians & Reptiles: Unchanged because they are perfect, Birds: 360° around back to dinosaurs, Fungi: I shan’t speculate on the affairs of gods.”
Ungulates - Even MORE stomachs.
Cetaceans - why not even bigger?
Cephalopods - Starships and philosophy and tragic poems about how short life is.
Bivalves - even less brain, brain make feel bad, brain bad
Felines - Find and domesticate the nearest dominant life form
Murmurations of birds and schooling fish - Horrifyingly surreal swarm intelligences that can take the shape of things like pointing fingers and signs to communicate or a big pair of cartoon scissors that chase you.
Anteaters also seem pretty popular with mammalian evolution.
Until the ants evolve into anteatereaters it’s the smart play, free protein all day
But will sharks be large fish exactly like the ones now, or smaller fish exactly like the ones now?
Yep
I’m upvoting, but in the end, it’s cocroach.
Tardigrade would laugh derisively but it’s having a little 1,000 year snooze. In space.
Only unfair if your not gonna be 70 billion years old, boom gottem.
Somehow crocodiles will make little to no changes.
Humans would have an 180ª evolution back to lemures, you can notice the beginnings even today.
Octopuses will probably be flying at some point fyi. If they choose to.
I fear the millennium where octopuses figure out how to not die during child rearing.
If those smart motherfuckers ever figure out how to pass on knowledge, humans might get a run for their money.
Thar would be a Children of time knockoff.
I’ve also heard kangaroo
“Evolution keeps making crabs. We asked a scientist why”

Can’t believe the mistake in this one - Fungi are the gods.
